Existing studies mostly focus on comparing the outcomes of different techniques in terms of predictive performance (see, e.g., [ 4, 5]), and, only recently, researchers have investigated the issue of stability of feature selection techniques with respect to sample variation [ 6, 7].
However, outcome data from a large variety of different techniques of internal fixation were pooled.
A standardised treatment protocol (including the surgical technique and follow-up strategy) might improve the outcome and would enable the comparison of different techniques.
A major limitation in the ability to determine the outcomes following EM is the variety of different techniques employed, and the lack of standardization and definition of them across studies (Table 2).
Since then, preoperative preparation has become such a basic standard practice that published studies can only compare the impact of different techniques on various outcomes, as the absolute effect was so clearly demonstrated more than a century ago.
Often a combination of different techniques allows individualized treatment with optimal outcomes.
Different labs have mastery of different techniques.
I'm not one for showcasing lots of different techniques.
We actually practice lots of different techniques on each other.
However, the optimal surgical technique for vaginoplasty in transgender women has not yet been identified, as outcomes of the different techniques have never been compared.
